peliculas — Patrick Clancy — 1979
a 16mm film installation created in 1979 by the American artist Patrick Clancy consists of 16mm frames from a found footage film inserted throughout and a hand-written text, written in cursive horizontally across the frames. The film is intended to be experienced in two forms—as a magnified projected image that overflows its frame within a gallery space, and as a material object, accessible to gallery-goers on a rewind table, over a light box, thereby acknowledging the split historical trajectory of the cinema, from projected images and hand-held philosophical toys. peliculas invites its spectators to reflect upon the means of film production and reception. The film is being publicly exhibited for the first time since a 1986 screening, curated by Scott MacDonald, and after having just been restored by the artist and Colorlab. screens 3/22-25 from 10AM to 6PM as part of the Society for Cinema and Media Studies annual conference
